(Matraca berg/gary harrison) Juliet waits at the border Of a creek without a corner Gazes into the dark Was it the moon or only Her fear of being lonely That gave her leave of her heart? Oh- oh-oh Oh romeo (romeo) Who would lay down her life? (romeo) Swallow the poison, beck of the night Maybe I cried (maybe I cried) Just a teardrop or two (tear or two) I would not die for you I would not die for you Just another romantic depressant Giving in she becomes obsessive Maybe this time I'll learn Life's like a box of matches Sometimes the whole thing catches And all you can do is watch it burn Oh-oh-oh Oh romeo (romeo) Who would lay down her life? (romeo) Swallow the poison, beck of the night Maybe I cried (maybe I cried) Just a teardrop or two (tear or two) I would not die for you I would not die for you La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la Juliet waits at the border Contemplates the new world order Oh romeo (romeo) Who would lay down her life? (romeo) Swallow the poison, beck of the night Maybe I cried (maybe I cried) Just a teardrop or two (tear or two) I would not die for you I would not die for you I would not die for you Oh romeo, oh romeo, oh romeo, oh romeo
